Small and large intestine and also addressing symptoms that are outside of the gut.
1:24
Like headaches, migraine.
1:25
Skinny shoes, hair issues, auto immune issues, and even cancer.
1:30
I've been doing this work for some time now.
1:33
I am realizing that there's a bigger.
1:36
Colin.
1:36
If you can understand what I'm saying, like I am called to do something different.
1:39
I'm called to do something.
1:40
Amazing.
1:41
And while working on the gut is fine.
1:44
I love it.

1:58
I will never stop working on people's gut.
2:00
However I will be.
2:02
Working on people's God.
2:03
Helping people to heal the gut and also.
2:06
Balancing the hormones.
2:07
because what I've been noticing in my practice with a lot of my, Got the clutter and patience.
2:12
They will do well on the program.
2:14
They have at least 90% of the symptoms eliminated.
2:18
However, they still coming back to me with symptoms that are hormonal.
2:22
Related that still lingering around and they're having tons of difficulties getting rid of them.
2:28
So the goal for the end of the year and moving all next year God-willing is to really help people balance the hormones.
2:36
I want to come at it.
2:37
In a different way.
2:38
Meaning that I, it will be.
2:40
Not only helping them balancing the hormones, but also educating them.
2:45
And also helping them identify what the body's doing or saying how these hormones are.
2:50
Super-duper important.
2:52
How we cannot bypass, The production of hormones, Hydell releasing our blood stream.
2:58
How do we have, you know, except the site.
3:01
On every single cells and every single organ and how we need to really, uh, put that into focus, Many of us are living longer.
3:09
Like the average.
3:10
It's death for, you know, people dying back in the 1940s was 48.
3:14
Now people are living longer, but they already are living longer.
3:18
They are suffering.
3:19
They have lingo and symptoms.
3:20
They're not living longer and enjoying the lives.
3:22
They are living longer in pain.
3:23
Living longer in distress and dysfunction.
3:26
Living longer in stress and worries, and concerns and aches and pains.
3:31
And I can know.
3:32
Push into the day, not fit in the best.
3:34
And since agent is not something we can avoid, we're all going to get old, including myself.
3:40
And I think getting old is a beautiful, beautiful process.
3:44
If you were to ask me.
3:46
But it's how we get old is our look on it.
3:50
Have you I'm getting old.
3:51
I want to change.
3:52
And how your body function as you're getting old.
3:55
Because I see so many patients in my practice.
3:58
They'll tell me why.
3:58
Dr.
3:58
Jay's age.
4:00
I saw a lady the other day who has an IUD inserted.
4:02
She's perimenopausal, heavy, heavy bleeding.
4:05
And she has anemia because of the heavy bleed, but, she had an IUD.
4:08
And started.
4:09
And then when I said, why do you think that is?
4:12
And she was telling me how it's her age?
4:14
But she's not even like 50 yet.
4:17
I'm not going.
4:17
My God.
4:18
That's very young.
4:19
I just turned 43.
4:21
I'm going to be 44 next year.
4:23
So I'm going into perimenopausal.
4:25
According to menopause society, perimenopause is started at the age of 45.
4:30
And sometimes earlier, I've seen people that goes into menopause at the age of 40.
4:35
42 43.
4:36
I know my mother went into menopause.
4:38
Late, 40, if not 38 40.
4:41
So she went into menopause very early, earlier than.
4:45
You know, the average.
4:46
Individual the average population.
4:48
But, I don't, I am at crunch when people tell me it's age, my back hurts.
4:54
Why?
4:54
Because I'm getting old, my head swelling up.
4:56
I'm getting old.
4:57
I cannot sleep.
4:58
My joints are hurting.
4:59
I can't get rid of this heavy fat.
5:01
In my, around my belly.
5:02
Why?
5:02
Because I'm getting old.
5:04
It's not about you getting old.
5:05
My friend is how your body hasn't been functioned properly because after sin, Older people.
5:12
I go to the gym and there's this lady at my gym.
5:15
I swear to you, she must be like, 70 something, but you will never know.
5:19
You never know, cause she comes on her nice cognitive outfit and she's doing most of the exercises movement better than I.
5:26
I'm struggling to do a pushup and he or she is going out it, and you can touch this older than me because you can tell she's older than me.
5:33
She has a beautiful skin.
5:34
She's always smiling.
5:35
And.
5:35
She is not.
5:37
Your picture, your typical.
5:39
70 year old.
5:40
She moves around though.
5:41
She's not complaining.
5:43
She does everything a hundred plus percent while all of us are like struggling in the classroom.
5:47
So age to me is just a number.
5:50
It's what you put to it.
5:51
It's not the end all.
5:52
So when patients come to me and they have all of these issues and they're Eliminate an age and I kind of feel sad, not only sad for them.
6:00
Sad for.
6:01
You know, the society sat for my community and sat for myself because if you 50 and you are complaining of all these aches and pains, and I'm only 43.
6:09
What is that going to be for me?
6:10
When I turned 50, am I going to go through this X and pains?
6:13
So for the past few months, I've been.
6:16
Literally thinking about this.
6:17
Thinking about how.
6:19
I want to make a difference.
6:21
And I am going to.
6:23
Help a community that has been.
6:25
stigmatized in a way, like you old you into menopause, your sexual drive is low.
6:30
You have a little bit of a new old when in fact it's no, if you have the right hormonal.
6:36
Treatment.
6:37
To balance your hormones and protocols to balance your hormones.
6:40
And you can have a good, healthy levels of estrogen progesterone.
6:45
for some people testosterone, Then, you should be fine.
6:48
You shouldn't be like, oh, I'm old.
6:50
That's why I have, you know, drive vagina.
6:52
I'm old because.
6:53
That's why I'm not, I don't have a sexual appetite in the bedroom.
6:56
I'm old because you know, that's why I kept getting right on my midsection.
6:59
I'm old because my skin is winkled and, you know, I can't get up the staircase.
7:05
So again, age is a number that somebody gave us.
7:08
That to me.
7:08
I don't, sometimes I don't even know how old I am.
7:11
And I have to keep reminding myself.
7:12
How old am I?
7:12
Because it's just a number I'm not holding under the number and correlated to how I'm feeling.
7:17
Yes.
7:18
I do understand as we get older, our body function decreases.
7:22
So our job is to really decrease the progression of decrease.
7:26
The creation of our body function is to slow down the progression is not to embrace it and make it mean something.
7:32
And that's why we can not get up the staircase now.
7:34
She's old.
7:35
She's in a wheelchair.
7:36
No.
7:37
So I've been really.
7:38
Contemplating and been working on this behind the scenes.
7:41
And working with the commander poser community.
7:44
So that's what we're moving into with pivot in to balancing people's homophones, to helping people really revive And have a healthy.
7:52
intimacy.
7:53
And I'm going to talk about sex a lot in this podcast.
7:55
So get ready for this.
7:57
If the word sex is a trigger word.
7:59
I I'm not gonna apologize.
8:00
I would love for you to work on that and find that white, what is your past experience with sex?
8:05
What is your trauma?
8:06
Because I know for me, I grew up in a household.
8:09
We couldn't even say the word sex.
8:11
We can't.
8:12
If you did you get beaten up, you get judged.
8:15
You get like looked at, did that look.
8:16
You crazy?
8:17
What would you say it is?
8:18
Shame on you for saying the word.
8:20
When in fact it is the most beautiful exercise that human beings can do, wherever they choose to do it.
8:27
And to connect them.
8:29
So it's a connection factor when it comes to sex.
8:32
Of course.
8:32
You know, for people to go out there and just slip with everybody and get STDs and not be, you know, responsible human beings, adults.
8:39
But if you're in a relationship and you have a significant person, or if you choose to be in a relationship that has many significant person and you guys agree and it's consensual.
8:48
go at it like this consent, go at it.
8:50
I'm not here to judge.
8:52
But when it comes to menopause, a lot of us, a lot of people.
8:55
Uh, having a lot of, symptoms that they don't know what to deal with.
8:59
And many of them are just suffering silently, not really reaching out to anyone.
9:04
And then.
9:05
Yes.
9:05
What.
9:06
They just got told, or this is age.
9:08
This is, you know, this is what of life, suck it up and stop complaining.
9:11
Just suffer until you die.
9:12
Suffer until your daddy.
9:14
To me, that's a no-no in my book.
9:15
I am not here to suffer until I die.
9:18
I'm here to thrive.
9:19
I'm here to Willie.
9:20
Communicate with my body and listen to the symptoms that I'm getting and find a way to decrease them or eliminate them or fix them.
9:26
But the suffering thing is not me.
9:28
I did not sign up to get, you know, to be on this planet to be here.
9:32
My mother give birth to me.
9:33
God chose me.
9:35
To suffer.
9:35
So, if you are like in the suffering mode and you are accepting it, I would love for you to really sit with yourself and say, Hey enough is enough.
9:45
I've been suffering.
9:46
I know there's a solution out there because guess what?
9:48
There's a solution out there.
9:49
Not everybody is suffering.
9:50
Some people are really thriving.
9:52
They have beautiful health.
9:53
They are traveling.
9:54
They are making tons of impact in the world.
9:56
And I want to be in that bucket.
9:57
I don't want to be in the suffering bucket, but guess what?
10:00
This is going to acquire for you to continue to.
10:03
Communicate with yourself to continue to find the reasons why you suffering and fix it.
10:07
Because at the end of the day, Your symptoms, the way you feel on a daily basis and an hourly basis.
10:14
It's your body communicating with you?
10:17
And many of us, we don't know about this type of communication.
10:20
Is what to do about it.
10:21
Yes, we do go to the doctor.
10:23
We'll do go see the conventional doctor, maybe functional medicine doctor.
10:27
And we got told, okay, you know, take this medication.
10:30
Let's do this blood test.
10:31
As the, this imaging, everything is normal.
10:33
And then again, it's in your head.
10:35
Go see a psychiatrist, get you some anxiety pill, get you some depression.
10:39
Medications when in fact it's not because the body is a powerful tool, it's a powerful machine is continuously working for you.
10:47
It's continuously working for me.
10:49
It's continuously working for the community.
10:51
So to get to be told that it's in your head, you crazy.
10:56
And stop complaining.
10:57
It's his life.
10:58
That's it.
10:59
I mean to me, that's a disgrace to humanity.
11:01
And also to you as the patient who feel.
11:04
Off.
11:04
Do you feel like, okay, this is not my body.
11:06
That's not what I, I want, I desire health.
11:10
I desire vitality.
11:11
I desire STEMI.
11:12
Now this is not what I want.
11:14
So.
11:15
Again, by the end of moving forward with, uh, By the end of the year, we're going to be focusing on menopausal.
11:21
And my goal.
11:23
Again, if, as long as I have the strength and God gives me the power and the world to do so.
11:28
And it's that's in his wish for me.
11:30
Is it, is it.
11:31
I know he spent for me, I will be happy menopausal.
11:34
When I pose a patient.
11:36
Help them balance the hormones, help them balance.
11:39
You know, the moons, get them, you know, um, have more sexual appetite, increased libido so that they can really.
11:48
For a great than the bodies.
11:49
Now you might be saying, well, Dr.
11:51
Jay, how are you doing this?
11:52
Because at the end of the day, you had a good doctor.
11:56
You had a gut and the weight-loss doctor.
11:58
How is this happening?
11:59
Well, I've been working very hard behind the scenes.
12:04
I've been educating myself a ton for the past few months have been searching.
12:09
We search in, um, About herbs that are designed for menopausal and perimenopausal and PMs.
12:18
Okay.
12:19
So I've been doing a lot of work again, people don't tell you, at least I don't, I don't tell you what's going on behind the scenes.
12:25
So when I show up.
12:27
In the market with a program it's not, I just wake up.
12:31
I'm like, oh, I'm going to do this program.
12:32
No, I test the products.
12:35
I test, um, you know, The program.
12:39
I have patients within my practice that are willing to help me out.
12:43
They know me, they trust me.
12:45
They know I am here for them.
12:47
I am literally in the back, I'm here to help them.
12:50
I'm not here to hurt them.
12:51
So if I have, an herb, a product that I need different, feedbacks on, I will have patients I can reach out to and I would just give him the part of, for free, and then we'll try it.
13:01
And they tell me, Hey, on a, and then if they say, Hey for buddy saying, Hey, yeah, yeah.
13:05
And if the squatter, then I will keep it.
13:06
If it's like, Hey, I don't know.
13:08
We'll move it because at the end of the day, I am not here to make an exchange.
13:13
Money for services.
13:16
And then for the service not to work.
13:17
That is my worst nightmare.
13:19
Giving people.
13:20
Products that are not working.
13:22
Because I know they will come to me for a reason.
13:25
And sometimes I might be, you know, one of the people they have high hopes.
13:29
So I'm not here to say, Hey, do this.
13:31
And then this is not going to work.
13:33
So therefore I am very meticulous and I'm very anal when it comes to products that I choose, that I put in my program.
13:38
And how did we.
13:39
interact with each other and how they help people.
13:41
So that's one thing we've been doing.
13:43
I have a few herbs that I've been testing for menopause.
13:47
If you arrested, I've been testing for PMs libido.
13:50
I have so many companies that I'm communicating with right now that we've been researching.
13:54
I have a lot of great ingredients that are non-toxic.
13:57
And I've been, really studying and researching and examining and evaluating and assessing all.
14:04
Just to make sure that the world worked.
14:06
Because it's typical, treatment four minute balls, You have hot flashes or night sweats or irritability, mood swings, or blah, blah, blah.
14:14
You go to your doctor and they'll give you home loans.
14:17
That's it.
14:18
They give you homeless that are not properly.
14:20
Balanced the levels about, and some people would get like mostly estrogen, synthetic estrogen.
14:25
Some people would get more sleep was progestin, which is synthetic progesterone.
14:29
And then you get the home on some people stuffing in a little better.
14:32
And then at the end they still feel the same.
14:34
And, you know, you go back to your doctor and be like, oh, Let's increase the dose.
14:39
But for me, I want to come at this with a different.
14:42
Lens in a different way.
14:45
Yes.
14:45
I am going to help people buy and sell homes, but I'm going to try to do it as natural as possible.
14:49
As natural as possible.
14:51
With herbs with some products that I have here with healthy lifestyles, with a lot of guidance, a lot of monetary and a lot of evaluating, a lot of accessibility to me into the team.
15:02
We're not gonna just.
15:04
Give people products and they say, Hey goodbye.
15:07
And go figure it out.
15:09
That's never been a thing of mine as a practitioner, as a functional medicine practitioner.
15:14
I always want to do.
15:15
Things for patients the way I want to do things to me, I want to treat patients the way I'm going to treat myself.
15:20
I want to have access to a doctor.
15:22
I can just send a message and get an answer within 24 hours.
15:25
I want to have access to the team.
15:26
I can just pick up the phone and call and not be different messages and don't get a call box.
15:31
So these are the things patients are important to me.
15:33
When I called the doctor a week ago, I'm still waiting to hear back.
15:35
Or the nurse call me and say everything is normal, but to have so many questions, I have to schedule another appointment and pay again to consider a doctor for us.
15:42
That's not the way it is, Because again, I values people's decision to work with us.
15:47
To me, it is the best thing we could have done because we do things again the most natural way.
15:52
Yes there's.
15:52
Sometimes I might prescribe medications if patients really need it.
15:56
Because at the end of the day, I have to do as best for my patients and stabilize them before we introduced natural medicine.
16:01
So, yeah.
16:02
Might give you something for, you know, like a steroids, if something is going on.
16:06
But that's not going to be.
16:07
My goal, That's not going to be the only thing I'm holding on to when it comes to helping you heal your body.
16:13
So with menopause, now we have herbs.
16:15
We want to incorporate and have products and supplements that we've tried.
16:19
I have two team members.
16:21
Two of my employees.
16:23
One is going to perimenopausal.
16:25
That's Len.
16:25
And the other one is going to is full bloom and a postmenopausal that's Maryland.
16:29
So when I have those things and I have them try it out.
16:32
They are perfect examples of what, what results patients can get in our practice.
16:37
So.
16:38
That's that, but I am also registered with the menopause.org.
16:42
As a menopause practitioner.
16:44
So if you're looking for menopause practitioner near you.
16:46
You can always go to menopause.org, which is, National American menopause society.
16:51
I believe.
16:52
And they have practitioner's day.
16:53
Currently.
16:54
Working on getting certified.
16:56
I don't need the certification, the parties.
16:58
to help people with, you know, Balance the hormones.
17:01
So many people are doing it.
17:02
They're not even certified, but for me having the certification, that's going to really enhance my skills.
17:07
And I just don't want to I'm not a doctor.
17:10
You know, Probably 10 people's homes.
17:12
I want to be the doctor that has studied that at the time and energy.
17:15
To get certified and to learn all the things about menopause.
17:19
Cause the certifications and not chill is a national process.
17:22
And I can.
17:23
B M in a positive.
17:24
set of five minute boys practitioner everywhere.
17:27
So that's something I'm working behind the scenes.
17:29
but moving forward.
17:30
I am still going to help people hear the gods.
17:33
I'm still going to help people with ways and fat loss.
17:36
And as a matter of fact, with the menopause.
